Thanks everyone for your replies.

Okay, so this is interesting. When I try deploying the app to the
domain root, I can't see the "Welcome aboard!" page; instead, I see
the index.html page that's in Apache's web root directory. Also, when
I try http://<server_addr>/users, I see a directory listing of the
(.erb) files that are in the demo_app/app/views/users. Does this mean
that Passenger is not set up correctly?

I don't know if it matters, but the server I'm using doesn't have a
domain name; I'm accessing it using its IP address.
